" London Dock, Sept. 20, 1836. " My Lord,—ln compliance with your Lordship's direc tions, I send a statement of such facts respecting the loss of the ship Clarks Eaton, as I have seen, and what I have since learned, of the fate of her crew and passengers. The ship Charles Eaton, and the schooner James and Henry, sailed from Sydney in company on or about the 30th day of July, 1834. The ship Augustus Cwsar sailed from thence on the 10th of August of the same year, fell in with the James and H enry outs id e o f t h e barren reefs. In passing through Torres Straits in company, we anchored under the lee of Double Island on the Ist of September, and sent a boat on shore with second mate and crew. They remained on the island about three hours, walked round it, and found a quan tity of drift wreck from a ship, but could not see the hull, crew, or passengers. Saw the remains of a fire, and one naked black man, who ran at their approach. On the boat's return to the ship, they brought off with them a stern's window, se- Yeral brass locks and a key, with the ship's name on it. " From the quantity of wreck seen it was evident the Charles Eaton was a wreck on some island or reef directly to wind ward, and at no great distance, probably York or Albany Is land. As a number of fires were seen on Wednesday Island during the night, it was not considered safe to venture a land ing in it. We went on shore at Booby island, and found they had not been there. Richard Bentley, New Burlington-street. CANTERBURY.—There has been little alteration in the ap pearance of the plantations in this vicinity during the past week ; the lice continue to commit great havoc in many grounds, and the samples will be greatly injured by the late winds and rains; good East Kent pockets will be valuable. There is a general complaint of the hops coming down short. The duty is estimated at 175,0001., and there are many opi nions against that amount. CRANBROOR.—Picking is now about half finished, and the prevailing opinion is that the crop will be deficient of what was expected, and the late wet and windy weather has injured the colour and quality of the hop, so that the dryers find it diffi cult to bring off what they call a bright sample. MAinsToNE.—The hoppers are in full activity, but a gene ral complaint prevails of the shortness of crop, badness of quality, inferiority of colour, and nearly every oth er o f t h e numerous ills that " hops are heir to." The quantity is so short that many of the pickers have " struck" for an advance of pay, contending that they have so much ground to go over to fill a bushel that they can hardly earn anything. It is cer tain that the duty must be even now considerably overrated, and the general opinion is that it cannot pay more than 160.0001. or 165,000/. WORCESTER, SEPT. 19.—The supply of hops at our annual fair, this day, was not so numerous as on former occasions, which may be attributed to the lateness of the season. There were between 700 and 800 pockets in the fair, of which were sold 587 new and 17 old. Prices from 4/. 10s. to Si. 155., according to quality, which was, generally speaking, middling; and it is expected much better samples will be produced on Saturday pet. On the previous market day little business was done ;, about 184 pockets were in the market, and new 18, old 3, sold. It is the opinion of many that our duty is much overrated, and that it will not exceed last years, viz., 15,751/. AND ASCENT OF THE i'VETV BALLOON.

The change has been ascribed to the extreme humidity of the coun try, in consequence of the late floods.

L auren t de Mures he met a carrier coming to Lyons, and fired upon him with a pistol, into which, for want of a bullet, he put a piece of a pewter spoon. The carter was sev ere l y woun d e d i n the shoulder, and fell, but immediately recovered himself, and ran to seize his assailant. This made the Chasseur believe that be had missed his mark, and being without any other arms, he fled without his expected booty. He was, however, taken the next day, and recognized by the carter, who soon after wards expired. The Chasseur persists in denying his culpabi lity.—French Paper.

WICK, &c., SEPT. 15.—Until yesterday we had considered that the fishing was concluded for the season ; but we are glad to state that a few boats again went out last night, some of which landed about twenty trans each this morning. The quality of the fish was very superior, and it appears that they were taken to the E.N.E., at a great distance from land. This favourable appearance has roused our fishermen anew ; and of the boats not yet hauled up for the winter, a consider able number will put to sea, and for a few days yet give the fishing a new trial. The average for the season is anything but a fortunate winding up of affairs to the numerous indivi duals engaged in this precarious and varying business. Cur rent prices of fish may be quoted at 225. per barrel ; few or none for sale. A great quantity of cod is now upon this coast ; and a boat at Staxigoe lately landed about 700, being one morning's catch. The fishing upon the Latheron coast, and farther south, is now almost over. The quantity caught is inconsiderable. At Helmsdale the average is rather above that of the other places. The West Coast fishing finished on the 2d inst. The salmon fishing in onithaess has proved very indifferent. ORKNEY.-The fishing here may be said to be concluded for this season. Under all circumstances, it cannot be con. sidered in any other light than that of a failure--the average not exceeding from 25 to 30 trans per boat. On Saturday last the catch was much better than on any day fur some weeks previous ; but there was no continuance of fish, and the week after proved very unsuccessful. SIIETLAND.-The last accounts from Shetland are of a par ticularly unfavourable description. The average there cannot be calculated at more than 10 to 12 trans. A vessel, however, which left Lerwick on the 10th instant, reports a tolerable fishing on that morning ; but the advanced period of the season leaves little chance of any thing being done of a satisfactory kind. The fishing on the Moray side may now be said to be over, and has, in general, been very abundant. At Peterhead and Aberdeen, the success has been great ; but in some of the more northern ports, the average may be reckoned about the same as at Pultneytown. Yesterday afternoon, between three and four o'clock, a most distressing accident occurred to Mary Pemberton, a fine young woman, 18 years of age, in the service of Mr. Dal housie, a gentleman residing in Charlotte street, Fitzroy square. It appears, from the statement of her fellow-servant, that the unfortunate young female was cleaning the back first floor windows, and, in complete opposition to the orders of Mr. Dalhousie, stood outside on the sill of the window. In pushing the sash up, it caught her fingers between the lower one. From the sudden agony she endured, she let go her hold, and was instantly precipitated into the back area, a height of 25 feet. Her fellow-servant, being in the back kitchen, observed her fall, and immediately gave an alarm of the melancholy circumstance. Assistance being procured, the poor sufferer was carried to her bed, and surgical assistance being promptly in attendance, it was discovered that she had fractured her thigh in two places, besides a severe one at the back part of her head. She lies in a most precarious situa tion. Not the slightest blame is to be attributed to the unfor tunate female's master or mistress, as it was in total contra diction to their orders for her to clean the windows. Rheims was , on Saturday last, the scene of the fol deeaprlsoermabplloyeeyeed in the manufactory of M. Depaquit,nts : Bernard Chaumont, who had been went to franc upon his w t ohis master at nineeek,s wages. in themor n n,: to This M. roe paciui t o ask foradvancean of one not only assented to, but was going to his bureau to give the money, when Chaumont stabbed him with a knife in the lower part of his body. Another man, hearing the cries of his mas ter, ran to his assistance, grappled with Chaumont, and wrested the knife from him ; but, being diverted by the expi ring groans of M. Depaquit, he released his hold of Chaumont, who made his escape, and ran into a public-house kept by M. Gerard, to whom he wildly declared that he had killed his mas ter and would return and murder his father. Gerard treated the declaration as a mad joke, but, in another moment, he him self received a slight wound from Chaumont with a small pointed instrument. The infuriated man afterwards rushed out again, went home, took a screw-driver used in fixing the locks of guns, and returned to renew his attack upon Gerard, but was prevented by M. Quiquet, a baker, who in the struggle was stabbed superficially with the screw driver. M. Quiquet, however, gained the mastery, and dra gge d Chaumont back to the house of M. Depaquit. Here he again broke loose, and, running into the factory, was on the point of killing a child belonging to his mas ter's family, whom he found in the arms of its nurse, when he was prevented by a workman named Barrois. Chau mont again escaped, but attempted to throw himself into a well belonging to the house; he was closely followed by Bar rois, and seized. Once more, however, he got free, and run. ning into the small street called La Barre, threw himself into a well there, but was caught by the leg after his whole body was in, and thus again saved from self-destruction, and finally placed in the hands of justice. M. Depaquit is dead, leaving three young children. He was remarked for his kindness to his men, by all of whom he is deeply regretted. Chaumont is also the father of three children.—French Paper. Lout A'AN.—Following the Dee, we find its source in two small cold-looking lakes, which sleep on the ridge which divides the glens and waters of Aberdeenshire from those of Banffshire. Descending the small stream issuing from the other side of the ridge, we may find our way to the A'an ; but by keeping to the left, and crossing, as nearly on a ottsaw l ho e hvnfe r aedet e stehhp l crhewaeo a as, airlsave, corresponding eveoe m :nanshngt a pstuo y eoeosatnn b rt sebdb e estsrei ehsnocheneguomoo brought Scotch Aaad i hi skhse e ote el n ci veosst hi scenery, atesnhrennt he will ,I , oe. the shoulder of the hill, a descent approach mayr rrowp a yr ip,t s b h e rl ko r e b: tanuho i s e s t l neh y fr L ste e et oosodoa this 1 . : I AgfTks v h ahi oon e fieec:cvhi o ei alnsn b aan j ontvnd e l eedyocwttsi described seeo o hhsnobc w ei acrtlni h nhi brek i oe c vei ssd l ned. : by Sir Walter Scott, in " The Lord of the Isles," where— " Seems that primeval earthquake's sway Hath rent a strange and shattered way Through the rude bosom of the hill, And that each naked precipice, Sable ravine and dark abyss, Tells of the outrage still."

IMPROVEMENTS IN ROAD.MAKING. — A tr ia l is now being ma d e i n the Wh i tec h ape l-road, opposite the Church, of a new material for roa d- ma king, which was about twelve months ago i ntroduced on t h e V au xhall-road and rKen nington Comm on , where it has susta i ne d e very variety of traffic with perfect success. The compos i t i on i s termed bituminous lava, and for me d of bitumen, lime, an d sa lica, in eertain which pro_ portions adapt e d to the nature of the traffic or climate, fur are formed i n t o a hom ogeneou s mass by heat , in portable naces employ e d on the road, and when in a fluid state the mixture is pour e d on the road to a d e pths o f from t h r ee to four arerios kmt inches, and wh en d ry presents a co mpact, uniform,en with the and durable mass. From th e sl i ghtness o f t h e a brasion, e heaviest rollin g surfaces, and being impervious to, the ex tremes of dust an d mud are equally avoid ed, to the wet great com fort of the inhabitants of the district in which it is employed. Samples of the road were exhibited before the last Commit tee of the House of Commons on the subject of turnpike roads, on which occasion the Reports of the clerks of the se veral districts on which it has been employed, were highly sa tisfactory, The weather on Wednesday was pre-eminently suited for a balloon ascent: indeed, in the whole course of the time I have been in the habit of ascending I do not remember more than three such serene days. The inflation was accom plished without the slightest inconvenience or difficulty in four and a half hours, an excellent and equa l p ress u re havin g been given during the whole time by Mr. Hutchinson, the engineer of the London Gas Company, under whose super intendance the gas was manufactured. The new car and hoop having been attached, I proceeded at the wish of the proprietors to ascertain the power of the balloon, which, by the unfavourable weather on the last occasion, was rendered impossible. The following is the exact weight of the whole apparatus since the new car and other alterations have been completed :—Silk and valve, 3381b5. ; net, 2241b5. ; car, 2001bs. ; hoop, 851bs. ; liberating iron and ropes, 301bs. ; grappling line and grapple, 1201bs. ; total, 9971h5. As many gentlemen as the car could contain then entered, and on their being counted there were found to be nineteen. I then sat on the edge myself, and the balloon raised the whole weight with perfect ease, besides several bearing their weight on the ropes attached to the hoop. At a low calcula tion the twenty persons weighed ten stone, or 140 lbs. each, making 2,800 lbs., which, being added to the weight of the apparatus as given above, viz., 997, makes a total of 3,797 lbs. HaO. there been room in the car two or three more persons might have been raised, and, with a hot sun acting on the balloon, even a greater number. At half-past four my com panions entered the car, our party, with myself, consisting of twelve, viz. Mr. Young, Captain Currie, Mr. Spencer, Mr. R. Burnett, of Vauxhall, Mr. Woodroffe, Mr. Rush, Mr. VV. Hughes and Mr. T. Hughes (sons of the proprietors), Mr. Adams, Mr. Cocks, the artist, Mrs. Green, and myself. Our ballast weight 780 lbs. We left the earth at ten minutes be fore'five o'clock, and ascended in a perpendicular line about 1.50 feet, when a very slight breeze from the north-west moved the balloon from immediately above the heads of the spectators in the gardens in a south-easterly direction. Every avenue leading to the gardens was rendered impassable by the masses of people collected, and from the immense number of private carriages around, it appeared to us that one half of the visitors intending to enter the gardens could not gain access to the entrances ; this, on our return, proved to be the fact. It being my wish to give the inhabitants of the vil lages over which we passed a good view of the balloon, and also that my companions should have a distinct view of the country, I kept the balloon during the whole voyage about four thousand feet from the earth (or four-fifths of a mile), and as re passed along the shouts of the spectators were refleqted from the under surface of the balloon. A gentleman named Burton constructed a very simple instrument, which I took with me, to make the rite and fall of the balloon immediately apparent to persons unnacustomed to an aerial voyage, and it answered this purpose most admirably. It consists of a light fan, die handle of which is connected with an index, showing with what force, and in what direction the resistance is acting. Finding that we were approaching a woody district, to pass over which would have occupied too much time, I determined to descend, and affected a landing in a beautiful grass meadow I had observed about a quarter of a mile a-head, the grapnell touching the ground about the centre of it. The evening was so perfectly calm that the balloon became stationary the mo ment it was relieved of the weight of the grappling iron by its resting on the earth, and we were hauled down by some twenty persons, assembled on the spot. We were soon surrounded by several thousands on foot and in carriages we had seen pro ceeding from every point. After packing the balloon in the car, which is contrived to serve as a case, we proceeded to Vauxhall, where we arrived at a quarter past nine o'clock. The field we descended in is in the parish of Beckenham, in Kent, and is the same in which I landed six years ago, when accompanied by my pony. C. GREEN. Royal Gardens, Vauxhall, Sept. 22, 1836. (FURTHER PARTICULARS.) Several gentlemen eminent in the scientific world, were pre sent on Wednesday, among whom was Mr. Farraday, F. R. S., who had an opportunity of inspecting the interior of the balloon when filled with gas, through which they were enabled to see the upper hemisphere of the, balloon, as distinct as if viewed through the common atmosphere, and which effect the gas had was owing to the skilful management of Mr. Hutchinson, en gineer of the London Gas Establishment, by having deprived it of its carbonaceous quality, and thereby rendering it exceed ingly light and applicable to the purposes of aerostation. Pre. vious to Mr. Green's departure, Mr. Sievier, who manufac tured the grappling-iron, presented him with an improved instrument by which to ascertain the diminished density of the air ; and a gentleman of the name of Burton furnished him with another instrument of his owninvention, by which the ratio of ascent and descent can be determined. When the balloon was fully inflated with gas, it (the gas) was found to have a power to support 3,8151b5. The highest altitude attained by Ms. Green, was 4,000 feet. lie could have obtained a far greater elevation, but he was desirous to let the inhabitants of London and its vicinity have a full view of the stupendous machine, of which they were de prived on the first occasion. The following statement of Mr. Green's own conclusions may not prove uninteresting : " If, on leaving the earth, the mercury in the barometer is at 30 inches, it will, at an elevation of one mile, have fallen below 25, at two miles below 21, and at three below 17, and it will descend to near 14, at an elevation of four miles. It is therefore evident, that as the pressure of the air on the mer cury, at the altitude of little more than three miles and a half, is reduced from 30 inches to 15, that half the pressure of the atmosphere is removed from the surface of the balloon, and that, consequently, the gas will expand, and occupy double the space it did at the earth's surface. It therefore follows, that if a balloon, the capacity of which is 70.000 cubic feet, leaves the earth fully inflated, and attains the above elevation, that 35,000 feet must be allowed to escape from the valves, and that the balloon will return to the earth with only half the quantity it ascended with, provided its tempera ture remains the same. As such, the ascending power of 35,000 feet is all the aeronaut possesses after ascending with a balloon of the above capacity, therefore, should it leave the earth fully inflated, and it is intended to attain the above ele vation, it follows that half the weight taken It? must be ballast, or other disposable materials, there being only half tho gas left at this altitude to support the balloon, the passengers, &c." From the altitude reached by the new balloon, and from its known powers, Mr. Green is of opinion that when filled with hydrogen gas, he could (alone) attain an elevation of nine or ten miles, and with a scientific friend or two lie has not the least doubt but that he might reach seven or eight miles, which is nearly double the height of the highest mountain. POLICE INTELLIGENCE. MANSION-HO USE. The Lord Mayor, some days ago, received from the Govern ment a communication and request, of which the following is a copy: -- " Downing-street, Sept. 10, 1836. " My Lord,—A representation, of which the inclosed is a copy, was forwarded to this Department by the Board of Ad miralty in the month of October last, having been addressed to the Secretary to that Board by Mr. William Bayley, with reference to the wreck of the ship Charles Eaton on one of the islands in Torres Straits, on her voyage from Sydney to Can ton. From information given by the mate of the Augustus Caesar, which vessel sailed in company with the Charles Eaton, there appears to have been reason for believing that a portion at least of the crew and passengers of the latter vessel bad suc ceeded in reaching some of the islands in Torres Straits, and, at the instance of Mr. Bayley, who is deeply interested in the fate of some of the passengers, I beg to request that your Lordship would have the goodness to cause the master and crew of the Augustus Caesar, which has now arrived at the port of London, to be examined as to their knowledge of the fate of the Charles Eaton, and of her passengers. —I am, my Lord, your Lordship's most obedient servant, JAS. STEPHENS." " To the Right Hon. the Lord Mayor." " Stockton, Oct: 5, 1835. " Sia—When I was lately in London, I did myself the ho nour of calling upon you, a t the office in Downing-street, to invite the attention of his Majesty's Government, through you, to one of the most dreadful cases of s hipwreck and thedmurder, or slavery, or both , tha t p erha p s ever occurred ; and one in which I feel more tha n an ordinary interest, f circum stance of being connected with some of the wretched sufferers. The following arc the facts of the case :—ln July 1834, the brig Charles Eaton, Captain Moor, sailed from Hobart Town to Sydney, and lef t the latter place the 29th of the same month, n for Canton , w ith several passengers on boar d , including Cap. tain and Mrs. Doyley, and two of their children, and an Indian n urse. The ship called the Augustus C cesar sailed in com pany with the Charles Eaton for several days from Sydney, but was obliged to separate in conseque nce o f a gale, in Torres Straits , about the middle of was wrecked,August. nearOn th eßo 0 2 b 2 y d of t h a t month the Charles Eaton land, or Double Island, in the Straits ; and from the in formation given by the mate the Augustus Caesar, who, w ith two other men, went )f ashore, there is every reason to b e lieve that the wh o l e of h Charles Eaton had land the crew and passengers of the e on that island ; but that many of t them, if not all, had been murdered, or carried into slavery bythesavages ; and as it is not unusual for the inhabitants of these islands to preserve the females for purpose s worse than death it s Al f, jesty's Government do impl ore t h e i n terference of his Ma the poor surviving sufferers (if any should st ill be living) from the dreadfulslavery to which they are now in that case subject. " Captain Doyley had been upwards of twenty years in the artillery of India, and Mrs. Doyley wa s the near relative of the Williamses in Birchin-lane, bankers; and of R. Williams, Esq., M.P. for Dorchester • and Captain Doyley was my brother-in-law, and also allied to Sir C. Doyley of Calcutta. As nothing can be heard of any of the crew or passengers (if alive) without the aid of his Majesty's Government, I shall "On inquiry since my arrival in London (3d Sept. inst.) Mr. Haviside, of Cornhill , informs me that a part of the crew of the Charles Eaton have since reached Batavia, and have given information that several of the passengers and crew are alive, and detained on the island, near where the s h i p was wrecked. " I am, my Lord, " Your Lordship's most obedient Servant, " WM. WISEMAN. After the Lord Mayor's return from Guildhall, where he had waited for an hour and a half in the vain expectation of making a Court of Common Council, no Alderman having at tended, with the exception of Alderman Winchester, Mr. Benjamin Smith, of No. 13, Corbet's-court, Spitalfields, waited upon his Lordship, and stated that he did so in conse quence of an advertisement that a sale of the bacon, pork, &c. &c. saved from the late fire at London-bridge, was to take place on Friday. He had, he said, been at Fenning's Wharf, and bad looked at the provisions narrowly on account of the reported fact that a quantity of arsenic which had been warehoused was mixed up with them. The LORD MAYOR desired that this informant would make a statement of so important a fact upon paper, as no time was to be lost. Mr. Smith immediately wrote down the following words : B. Smith begs most respectfully to inform the Lord Mayor that there is a quantity of white arsenic (which he understands is the property of Messrs. Branham, of Size lane,) in the ruins of the fire on Fennings' Wharf, Tooley street, and he thinks the bacon, pork, sugar, &c., proposed for public sale, on Friday next, is therefore rendered unfit for use." " Norton Folgate, Sept. 22, 1836." The LORD MAYOR then sent for the City Solicitor, and Al derman Humphrey, who it is well known, is interested in every question relative to the late calamity, being in that gentle man's office at the time, accompanied him to the- Mansion house. His LORDSHIP showed the written communication of Mr. Smith to the City Solicitor. Alderman HUMPHREY said it was true that a portion of ar senic had, in consequence of the fire, been mixed with some of the goods, but not with those which he had understood were for sale. The LORD MAYOR said, that the moment he heard of the sale, it occurred to him that it was his paramount duty to in terfere, to prevent the possibility of mischief to his fellow creatures. He perfectly well knew that if the sale took place, the pork and bacon would (at all events a great part of it) be sent down to the poor hop-pickers in Kent, arid if the poison, which lay in the ruins in such quantities, were mixed with such beverage, what dreadful consequences might ensue, and what a serious responsibility would his (the Lord Mayor's) be, if he did not take active and resolute measures to prevent the sale. _ Alderman Ilumenkity—All the provisions ought to be sold to the soap-boilers, who would give a large price for them, and no injury could then result. But I apprehend more from the mixture of the arsenic with the sugar than with the pro visions. The LORD MAYO': would not allow provisions or other goods which might be damaged by the arsenic, to the preju dice of human life or health, to be placed in the hands of any body. He knew that the poor would, from their poverty, be induced to purchase anything that was cheap, and he knew that there were amongst the rich many who would sell, what ever might be the effect of the experiment. The City-Solicitor understood that Mr. Smith had found half a pound of arsenic amongst the pork; it was evident from that circumstance that the sale of the provisions would be altogether unwarrantable, and the Lord Mayor's suggestion of sending a notice to those who were authorising the sale, was certainly in every respect advisable. The Lola) MAYOIt-I am determined to go further, and write immediately to the Secretary of State on the subject. I cannot satisfy my conscience without adopting that course too. The City Solicitor fully coincided in the Lord Mayor's idea of his responsibility, and the duty imperative upon him in con sequence of such deep hazard. His Lordship then wrote to the Directors of the Sun Fire Office a note, inclosing a copy of Mr. Smith's communication. His Lordship also sent a note to Lord John Russell, of which the following is a copy : "My Lord,—l feel it to be my duty to place before von tho enclosed copies of letters I have received, and addressed to the Directors of the Sun l' ire Office, upon the subject of the sale of the property saved from the fire at Penning's Wharf. My chief object in troubling your Lordship is, that at this season of the year the hop-pickers are supplied with such food. " I have the honour to remain, " Your Lordship's obedient servant, " W. T. COPELAND." Q UEEiV- S Q ETA RE. Yesterday morning, as soon as the Magistrates, Messrs. BURRELL and WitirE, bad taken their seats upon the Bench, this office and its avenues were excessively crowded by mem bers of the theatrical profession, in consequence of a person being charged with a most outrageous assault upon the Be douin Arabs, now exhibiting at the Surrey Theatre, by which Hassan Abdallah, one of the most dextrous of the party, had suffered the loss of three of his front teeth. The name of the defendant is Wm. Marshall, a cabinet-maker, residing at No. 10, Northampton -street, Clerkenwell. Mr. James Bowsen, a musician, deposed that on Wednes day evening tho theatre was greatly thronged, and the defen dant, who had beer, permitted to sit in the orchestra, made an attempt to force himself into the private box where Hassan was sitting, who immediately arose from his seat, and made signs to the defendant that it was a private box, and he had no business there, upon which the defendant struck the Arab a most violent blow upon his mouth, and knocked nut three of his teeth. The witness continued that the defendant put him self into a fighting attitude, and the other parties who had forced their way into the box also attacked the Arabs. By this time the other Arabs had come in to the assistance of their countryman, and speedily contrived to drive the whole of the parties from the box ; but the defendant was the only party taken into custody, the others having escaped in the crowd. The defendant was ordered to find heavy bail for his appear ance to answer the charge at the Surrey Sessions. UNION-HALL. Yesterday Benjamin Bell, the driver of a hackney-coach was charged with cruelty to a horse. policeman of the 17, division stated that on Sunday morn ing he observed the defendant driving a hackney-coach in the New-cut, the horses of which were in a very poor condition. One of them in particular appeared to be in a bad condition, and this horse the defendant flogged most unmercifully; and when he was tired of punishing it with the whip he alighted from the box, and, rushing forward to the animal's head, ho seized its car between his teeth, and bit it until the blood flowed from the wound. The policeman added that he gave information of the cruelty he saw practised on the occasion to Mr. Thomas, the Secretary of the " Animal's Friend So ciety," th roug h w h ose directions the defendant was summoned to this office. Mr. 'WEDGWOOD asked the defendant what he had tosa w y it i i n t answer to the charge. His conduct in lashing the his te subsequent w'hipas e ruel brutality enough, in b biting u tthte e h offce was aggravated or by keep e animal's en e ar whip to ma . k Defendant—The horse would not move a peg, and what was I to do ? I was obliged, Sir, to use the up with the other. . hi The policeman said thatwhen m th . e horse was in the act of falling down, he kept whipping Defendant—That was to keep him up from falling down that I did that ere. animal's car? Defendant—.He The MAGISTRATE aske d him why d he alighed from hi b ox , and bit the ant—He g ot a touch o f th e know that there i s s taggers, and I bit him in the ear to make the bl oo d come ; for anybody as k n ows what a orse is must nothing so good for a poor hanimal as taking a little blood f ro m his weins when he is a bit queer. The MAGISTRATE asked him if the horse was his own ? The reply was that he had none on his own; but that he had a wife and a small family to look after. He hoped his Worship would not be hard upon him, for he would declare that he used his teeth cos as how lie had no lance handy, and no wetnary surgeon being present to hoporate on the hanimal. The MAGISTRATE said that he was a very brutal fellow, and fined him 10s. and costs. An" affair of honour" was to have been settled at I? . reenpark la s t wee k b etween C apta i n P o ll o ck, of Castle wilder, and J. C. Lyons, Es, of Ledistown. The affair q. originated, w e un d erstan d, about 44 a tailor." We have heard, also, that five or six Magistrates, with some of the police authorities, were made acquainted with the " whole af fair" last night. The gentlemen very b rav ely met, pistol in hand, in the morning, but, as might naturally be expected, a host of police were in readiness to capture the„ belligerent parties. An amicable arrangement took place.— TVestmeath Guardian. FOR SALE BY AUCTION, IL, f\ r• ' urd e By Mr. SAMUEL LOVE, .
